...and by screwing up a Norinco that way it also shows you really do not know much about Norinco or how hard/almost impossible it is to get them now...and that they are worth quite a bit in the original configuration...

I was only told it was a Norinco by the gun shop that I bought it from, so maybe they were wrong and by no means am I an SKS guru. But if a Norinco is worth so much in the original configuration, why was I able to buy this rifle for less than $270?


UTG is nothing but cheap Chinese made toy gun parts for air soft guns...and tapicco is known world wide as tapico ******* a gun...total ****, cheap crap for people who do not know better, or just want to throw away money...by making a gun look "cool" or "tactical" thus the phrase tacticool came about...

Again, back to lack of better options for an SKS.


Did not see the part about the eotech being a cheap chineese fake...but hey, it's your money and if ya want to flush it down the toilet so be it...

I knew it was a fake when I bought it, and I knew I would be taking a risk at it not working. But even had I not bought it, who says an alternative in the same price range($80) would have been any better or worse.

Just cuz ya could have gotten a cheap Chinese aimpoint micro knock off from PA and have been further ahead...as it's actually a good optic...& ya can even get one with a mount that's better than the utg toy parts...
Didn't know it was an option. Had I known about it, I might have gotten it instead.

What the hell is a SKS? Where do you find them so cheap? There is one on Texas gun trader for $350 thats a norinco. I figured for an extra $50 i could get a sweet AK, assuming its a decent rifle.

Someone said you can mod the ar's more, but from what i read you dont need to mod a AK maybe put a sling on it and call it good. Also how would one mount a optic to a AK i dont see any rails on the recievers.

Btw Ramp sweet ak!

The SKS was the predecessor to the AK and didn't see service long before being replaced by the AK. Try gunbroker. I just looked tonight and there's lots of them on there. Yugos are the most popular but are longer and heavier because of the grenade launcher muzzle device and associated sights and the gas system is slightly different. Just look around and you might be able to find one cheaper. I think I got a pretty good deal on mine and just happened across it at the right time. I wasn't even looking for an SKS at the time. I was looking at ARs and AKs as well and saw this SKS for 250 bucks. I checked it out and put it back. I called back the next week and told them I'd be in later to pick it up.

Check out this site for more info on them: Survivor's SKS Boards - Index

Most AKs come with a side mount on the left side of the receiver for a scope mount. It is the best way to put an optic on an AK. There are other quad rails for the fore end and ones that replace the rear sight. There is also a rail that replaces the rear sight and attaches to the tang for the stock.

Nice! I looked at a few Sigs when I was looking for my first pistol last year but they were a bit out of my budget. Recently I just found out about the Certified Pre-owned sigs that are out there. They seem like a really good deal. Factory reconditioned and much cheaper.

So when ya gonna go shoot it?

I paid $433 otd for this pistol. I can buy a barrel and slide of .40, .45, or .357 sig and put it on the gun without any hassle which was a big selling point for me.

I was gonna shoot it today but the lame deer hunters are out at the ranch.....Ill probably go to a range to shoot it since i work some long *** hrs!

O btw the trigger pull is AWESOME!!
